The Weather
I have a friend that lives 30 miles South of Minneapolis, he said they were getting rain tonight like he’s never seen it before. If it was colder he figures a foot of snow per hour wouldn’t have been a stretch. Glad to hear that schools are closed and no one is to report until Monday. Just wish they did it earlier than 9pm but happy it wasn’t 6am.

I booked this week off 2 months ago. Not only does this storm ruin my plans but they are closing the office for 2 days and those F’ers are getting 2 free days off…

“Potentially historic blizzard” is what the weather network is calling it now. This had better be some kind of storm or I will be disappointed.

Is your side yard adjacent to Concordia Ave East? If not you aren’t the only one with this situation. There are many areas in my neighbourhood that the pliéing is what I would call sidewalk adjacent…

I will have to give Sweet Tops another try. Last Sunday Sub Zero hadn't opened for the season yet so we went to Cool Encounters, 1 of 3 treats made well, one okay and one needed remaking. My wife's chocolate shake with a pistachio flavour burst arrived on the counter white... It's still a chocolate shake, WTF???

All this burger talk, picked up some fresh ground chuck and going throw burgers down over some charcoal tomorrow. Just a little too much snow in the charge to do smash burgers on the wood fired Teppan grill.

I am impatiently waiting for Wayback on Regent to open. They put out a pretty solid offering and have a decent gluten free bun.

While talking about restaurants, I need to order lunch for about 25 people, must be locally owned. Thoughts?

I was diagnosed Celiac about 6 weeks after my last visit there so it wouldn’t be the same for me anyway but my wife is crying after seeing those pics. Her heart aches for a “Special”.

Driving by that smashed window every morning just about makes me cry. My wife hasn’t been the same, we reminisce about that that weekly. “What’s the soup?” Don’t worry, you’ll like. Eat soup, no pay. Don’t eat soup, you pay. 5 years and I can’t tell you of a replacement, there just isn’t one.

Depending on the weather… Cold air will not help might hurt you even, some of the guys I know with the longest lingering symptoms spent too much time in cold air.

2022 CFL Free Agency(Rumors/official signings)
Being a Friesen article I expected it to come off with a much larger axe to grind. Thought it came off more balanced than ever. No added shade cast on the organization. “We all” didn’t assume him The leader in the locker room. If you’d ever truly watched him on the sidelines on game day. He’s always off on his own, pacing the sidelines or even waving a towel to get the fans going. He’s never talking to the offensive line or others between possessions. Always ready to go back out there but on his own between. Am I piling on with anti Harris sentiment? I hope it doesn’t come across as such, it isn’t intended too. Harris was my son’s favourite player but he’s always been a little of a loaner off the field.

It’s amazing the relief you can get from telling your boss what a piece of **** he is. That relief of stress really helped my sleep. it’s amazing how many people refuse to see CBD as an option but would but much more artificial chemicals in their body.

Walking around with a Nazi flag should be an arrest on sight offence. There sure isn’t much left to the legitimacy of their protest when they allow this to go own.

I believe the Lions mgmt are the suckers in this scenario. If anything we were pawns in his plan.

Does Lucky get extra for returning? I know I’m grasping at straws here, just trying to fathom that deal. Unless of course it was just the tremendous marketing he did by being at the GC here?

The Winnipeg Thread
If I had to guess the balked at going through with the sale as they realized that Headingly was not going to approve the development plan and then the city could be in trouble with the purchaser. City needs to come up with a plan that the RM agrees with prior to the sale. I predict this goes on for a few more years.
